Psychiatric disorders in chronic daily headache: detection by means of the SCID interview (original) (raw)
2000, Journal of Headache and Pain
AI-generated Abstract
This research investigates the prevalence of psychiatric disorders in patients with chronic daily headache (CDH) utilizing the Structured Clinical Interview (SCID) per DSM-IV diagnostic criteria. The study reveals a significant overall prevalence of psychiatric disorders at 66.1%, with no substantial difference in rates by gender. Specific breakdowns show a 50% psychiatric disorder prevalence in chronic tension-type headache patients and higher rates in those experiencing chronic migraines and coexisting migraine-tension-type headaches. The findings suggest a link between psychiatric conditions and chronic headache, reinforcing the complexity of managing chronic pain in such patients.
